Well, let's turn this around. You seem to really dislike caps. And you
vaguely claim security holes, which we have shown know don't
exist. So, now, can you clearly explain why precisely you dislike them
so much still?  And something more technical then "systemd shouldn't
use them" or "i don't like them", or "they should only be used in the
kernel", because these are not technical reasons, they are just claims
of personal taste.

I will grant you that they aren't particularly expressive, and I will
grant you that one day there might be better concepts. But that's not
a strong reason not to support them really, that's just a reason to
later add support for something better.
